Contexte :
Dementia with Lewy Bodies (DLB) and Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) are two common neurodegenerative diseases among elderly people. Both associated with abnormal deposits of proteins in the brain, the diagnosis of these diseases can be challenging, particularly in distinguishing between them, as they exhibit similar symptoms in their early stages. Brain MRI provides detailed images of brain structures, allowing for the identification of structural changes associated with neurodegenerative diseases. Deep learning has shown great promise in analysing these images, enabling accurate predictions and interpretations. At the center of it are the recent emerging large-scale pre-trained vision-language models (VLMs), which have demonstrated remarkable performance thanks to their generalizable visual and textual representations.

Sujet :
We will deploy a VLM to improve the accuracy and efficiency of brain image analysis, with a specific focus on classification and associated reasoning presented in text form. Our specific focus will be on the analysis and understanding of neurodegenerative diseases, Dementia with Lewy Bodies (DLB), Alzheimer’s Disease (AD), and/or Parkinson disease. We will base our study on our recent work, where the model we developed learns and refines visual, textual, and numerical representations of patient gait videos using a large-scale pre-trained Vision-Language Model (VLM) for several classification tasks.

Profil du candidat :
− Solid programming skills: Python/C++
− Experience in Deep Learning (Transformer, CLIP, etc.)
− Good communication skills
